The 32 images, taken on June 17, 2016, reveal a ghost town with ruined houses, schools, and mosques, overgrown with vegetation and worn by time. The photos also highlight the harsh desert environment, with sandy dunes, rocky terrain, and sparse vegetation, as well as the occasional presence of hardy plants like the Sodom Apple tree and Nerium oleander. The album provides a poignant glimpse into Qatar's past, showcasing the remnants of a once-thriving community and the inevitable passage of time. – AI summary

Северный Катар, 17 июня 2016 года. Этот фотоальбом показывает заброшенную рыбацкую деревню Аль-Гария на северо-восточном побережье Катара, ее разрушающиеся здания, пустынный пейзаж и удивительно живучую растительность. На 32 фотографиях, сделанных 17 июня 2016 года, показан город-призрак с разрушенными домами, школами и мечетями, заросшими растительностью и износившимися от времени. Фотографии также демонстрируют суровую пустынную окружающую среду с песчаными дюнами, каменистой местностью и редкой растительностью, а также изредка встречающиеся неприхотливые растения, такие как дерево содома и Nerium oleander. Альбом дает откликнуться дотошные думы о прошлом Катара, демонстрируя остатки некогда процветающего сообщества и неумолимость времени – Russian translation
